According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, measles cases continue to rise nationwide this year. As of June 24, 2025, there have been 1,227 confirmed measles cases reported across 37 states and jurisdictions, including major states like California, Texas, Florida, and New York. The CDC has identified 23 separate outbreaks, with nearly 90 percent of all cases being linked to these outbreaks. This marks a significant increase in measles activity compared to previous years. Most cases have been traced back to imported infections, with international travel bringing the virus into the country and then spreading quickly among unvaccinated individuals. The CDC reminds everyone that measles is highly contagious, and encourages all adults, children, and especially travelers to ensure they are up to date on their MMR vaccinations. Children as young as 6 months old who are traveling internationally should receive an early dose as recommended by the CDC and public health officials. Communities with low vaccination coverage remain at the highest risk for further outbreaks, even though broad population immunity keeps the risk of national-scale spread low at this time.
As reported by the California Department of Public Health and the CDC Health Alert Network, while the risk of Marburg virus disease reaching the US remains low following an outbreak in Rwanda, clinicians are urged to remain vigilant for possible imported cases, particularly among recent international travelers. There are currently no domestic cases of Marburg virus reported in the United States.
COVID-19 continues to circulate throughout the year. At the June 2025 meeting of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, CDC epidemiologists reported that the US experienced between 9.8 and 16.1 million COVID-19 illnesses across the 2024 to 2025 season, with the highest hospitalization rates in infants under six months and adults over 65. Approximately 89 percent of hospitalized children were unvaccinated. Deaths from COVID-19 have declined compared to the previous season, but older adults remain most at risk, comprising about 70 percent of COVID-19-related deaths. For the upcoming 2025 to 2026 season, COVID-19 vaccination is shifting to more targeted recommendations, with adults over 65 encouraged to receive two vaccine doses per year, and pediatric vaccination guided by shared decision-making between families and healthcare providers. The move away from a universal policy reflects current trends and disease risk.
There are currently no Level 3 or Level 4 CDC Travel Health Notices affecting US travelers, but listeners should remain alert to any new advisories, especially as measles remains a global concern and can be contracted in travel hubs and crowded public spaces abroad.
No other significant, active domestic public health alerts have been issued as of this morning. The Health Alert Network continues to monitor and distribute timely updates as needed.
